    "Guten" Buy

    So I went to Gutenfest with the intent not to spend money - I live local to Gutenparts and help Levent out being the "Guten Bitch" as we jokingly say... As the cars rolled in, this car rolled in from Boston - '89 alpine/bue, 100k miles, auto, clean body. After taking a day to think about, it was too good of deal to pass up. The car is very clean and tonight Levent did some magic by cleaning out the engine bay.

    The story I was told by the seller, the car was sitting outside under a tarp and was extremely dirty when he bought it. But he did a great job cleaning it up, placed a new top. Records go back to 2000, but based on our preliminary inspection, new timing belt and maintenance will be first.

    It is going to be a birthday present for my Father (so the auto is perfect for him). We had an '87 alpine/cardinal. He is out of the country and will surprise him at the airport in a month. I can't wait to see his face!

    Here are some shots of the cleaning tonight.... Check out the acorns! Sorry for the crappy cell pics.

    this is going to be nice, nothing crazy but a good solid looker/driver.

    Unless.... your Dad wants euro bumpers, mtech1 body, throwing star wheels, etc. etc...

                        In Guten style we are already getting carried away. Is it bad Marty and I just bought another e30 vert, yes that makes two... Two is better then one.

                        Selturk, everything is for sale, check out the site, listed with details and price.

                            The second one is black with a cardinal interior and so pretty... So tempting to have two black e30s with rare interiors (my coupe is black/grey houndstooth).

                              I threw the idea of getting an e30 convertible at him a few weeks ago. I found one, but it needed to much work and he knew about it. Before I was able to see, he kept asking "did you see it? is it nice?"

                              I told him about this one, but pretended someone bought it before I pulled the trigger... I'm trying hard not to spoil the surprise :p
